Background / Scenario
In this lab, you will build a simple network with two hosts and two switches. You will also configure basic
settings including hostname, local passwords, and login banner. Use show commands to display the running
configuration, IOS version, and interface status. Use the copy command to save device configurations.
You will apply IP addressing for this lab to the PCs and switches to enable communication between the
devices. Use the ping utility to verify connectivity.
Note: The switches used are Cisco Catalyst 2960s with Cisco IOS Release 15.0(2) (lanbasek9 image). Other
switches and Cisco IOS versions can be used. Depending on the model and Cisco IOS version, the
commands available and output produced might vary from what is shown in the labs.
Note: Make sure that the switches have been erased and have no startup configurations. Refer to Appendix A
for the procedure to initialize and reload a switch.
